I've cataloged, oh, I met this one entrepreneur that makes shirts that I would love to connect you. She's connected authors with lawyers for their multi-million plus book deal and not realizing that's what it was for, but just being like, oh, you're an interesting person. This is another person that's interesting. You guys should be connected. That's cool.

But it comes from just being so deeply attuned and paying attention in spaces that we're in the same rooms. And she's picking up on things where I'm like, huh? Oh, yeah, I guess that did happen.
